Discovery: Voki

The third edition in my Discovery series on A Slice of Photos.


Voki allows you to create customised avatars with the optional addition of a voice. You can put the avatar on, for example, you're personal website to welcome your visitors to your site or to explain something. Whatever takes your fancy.

They have recently released also, Voki Classroom. Online there are also Lesson plans and if you sign up, you can manage students and classes using Voki.

I've not used this myself yet but I have visited some fellow students' websites and been greeted by an avatar. Visit www.voki.com

Discovery: Which?


This is the second feature of my Discovery series.

Which? is an magazine that "campaign to get a fairer deal for all consumers and publish expert, unbiased information to help you make the right choice, whatever you're buying." (directly from Which website)

I think it is a brilliant magazine and website. They reviews lots of interesting everyday items and have their own "Best Buys". You also occasionally see television adverts with brands such as Ariel featuring the Which? Best Buy award logo. They are a highly regarded consumer company and do wonders for the general public. It's always good to refer to Which? before buying, for example, an expensive appliance.

Go check out their website at www.which.co.uk today or subscribe to their factual and very useful monthly magazines for even more.
